Green Needles
March 7th, 2008It was so cold the day after the last big storm that these needles were still frozen. Bastard snow!
Taken in macro mode on the 70-200mm f4 (non-image stabilzed; didn’t want to throw down for a lens we weren’t going to use that much, but it’s looking like the 2.8 IS will eventually join the ranks of the coveted). o

Quite nice. I like the contrast of the vivid color with the snow.
Every time I see your photos it makes me want a D40X more and more.

Lovely shot! Almost makes you like the snow, doesn’t it? Almost…

Brrr…nice, frosty shot.
We’re supposed to get another 25-30 cm overnight here, East of Toronto. Makes me want to cry.

@shauna - I think he shoots with a Canon. And if your going Nikon get a D40 and spend the savings on a nice lens. Check out http://www.kenrockwell.com

@Ritish - I know. I am just a Nikon fan (I like the menus better). Also, my husband has a D40X with all of the nice lenses, filters, etc. So I would just get the standard and borrow his lenses.

I love how minty the snow looks.
